Bryce Molder fashioned a bogey-free, 6-under-par 32-33=65 in today's second round of the John Deere Classic to reach the halfway point in 9-under 133, one swing off Scott Pinckney's 36-hole clubhouse lead.

Molder shared sixth place at Greenbrier on Sunday, so he made the trip to the Quad Cities with confidence. It was on display today, especially. He hit 16 greens in regulation and connected for three birdies on each nine. He saved the best for last, too, drilling a 35-footer for birdie at the par-4 18th before signing his card.

Overnight co-leader Bryce Molder stalled out to an even-par 34-36=70 in the final round of The Greenbrier Classic to conclude at 11-under 269, good for a seven-way tie for sixth place and two shots out of a playoff.

Molder, vying for his second career PGA TOUR title (2011 Frys.com Open), began the final round in a four-way tie for the lead. The 36-year-old, playing in the penultimate pairing with S.J. Park, never got much of anything going, exchanging one birdie at the par-3 second with one bogey at the par-4 sixth. He concluded his round with 12 consecutive pars. The lack of a charge wasn't the result of his ball-striking, landing 13 (of 14) fairways and hitting 16 greens in regulation. Molder ranked first in strokes gained: putting thru three rounds, but his flat stick abandoned him on Sunday, clocking in at -1.697 in the putting stat over his final frame. He didn't have many realistic scoring chances however, with his lone conversion at the third, from 4'5", his only birdie putt from inside 12 feet on his entire loop. Molder's T6-finish was his second top 10 on the season (19 starts). His previous best at The Old White TPC in two prior appearances was T17 in 2013. Jul 5 - 8:21 PM

Bryce Molder signed for a 3-under-par 31-36=67 after today's third round of The Greenbrier Classic to post 11-under 199, good for a four-way tie for the lead after 54 holes with Jason Bohn, Sean O'Hair, and S.J. Park.

Molder, playing in the penultimate pairing with Chad Collins, began his final frame in a six-way logjam at 8-under (T3) and just one off the pace. He grabbed some early momentum, circling three birdies on his outward half, but stalled out with nine consecutive pars to conclude his day. On a positive note, he stayed in the title chase by going 4-for-4 in scrambling on his inward nine, three of those were par-saving putts between five and seven feet. Molder, 102nd in the FedExCup standings, split 10 (of 14) fairways and landed 12 greens in regulation, and with three rounds in the books, he ranks first in strokes gained: putting and T1 in strokes gained: total. The 36-year-old hit on his season-best T3 (18 starts) at the season-opening Frys.com Open back in October and is his only top 10 of his 2014-15 campaign. Coincidentally, his lone PGA TOUR win (225 career starts) came at the Frys.com Open as well, in 2011. Jul 4 - 6:13 PM

Bryce Molder smoothed a 6-under-par 32-32=64 in today's second round of The Greenbrier Classic to post 8-under 132 at the halfway point, good for a share of the 36-hole clubhouse lead.

Molder totaled just 12 greens in regulation but connected for seven birdies, six of which from outside 10 feet. The most notables taped out at 21'3" and 35'7" at Nos. 14 and 16, respectively. His only miscue occurred at the par-4 seventh where he bogeyed, but he didn't miss from inside 11 feet all day. At last check, his strokes gained: putting for the round measured 4.591. Molder's only top 10 of the season came in the first event; he tied for third at the Frys.com Open. He arrived at Greenbrier slotted 102nd in the FedExCup standings, but is now in position to record his second PGA TOUR victory in 223 starts as a professional. Jul 3 - 1:34 PM
